With several years of experience in oncology research, Alex has mainly focused on the intersection of transcriptional regulation and epigenetic reprogramming in various cancers, and how these processes pose opportunities for therapeutic intervention. After graduating, he honed a diverse skillset in a variety of epigenetic mapping techniques. In his previous roles, Alex successfully internalized and built novel chromatin-mapping techniques that provided impactful insights into a variety of preclinical projects. He is excited to do the same at Flare!

When away from the lab, Alex enjoys spending time outdoors – kayaking, running, and hiking. He is a novice guitarist, and hopes to one day be at least moderately proficient!
